Mit einem Tiger schlafen

30.7. Kino wie noch nie: In the presence of Anja Salomonowitz

Gifted child, abandoned daughter, determined woman, lonely artist, explorer of inner worlds, celebrated painter. The film SLEEPING WITH A TIGER by Anja Salomonowitz is a poetic portrait of the Austrian painter Maria Lassnig (Birgit Minichmayr). A film about her search for her very personal, artistic expression, her struggle in the male art world, her physical struggle for her painting, in which she brings her inner pain to the canvas. And then also a film about her great artistic success.
